Like many of you, I received an email from Bluetti saying that the pre-sale for the A200 would be July 1st at 7am PDT.. BUT only 200 units would be available @$999. This is nice but how does that help the rest of us? I sent their marketing team an email and this is what they said..
"The crowdfunding is also a form of pre-sale. The expected delivery time of Bluetti AC200 is mid-August. We will release limited super early bird price, early bird price, Indiegogo special price and so on once it launch."
By not taking as many orders as possible, they are giving the competition an opportunity to come up with something equivalent / better / cheaper.
Gaming the sales is ok, but I would rather see an open early sale at $1399 (or something appropriate) for all pre-orders July 1st and if I have to wait to November, that would be OK. I don't have the time to watch the clock and hit submit waiting for "and so on".
Maybe I am wrong and the rest of the crowd enjoys the sales game.
